One Year of Werewolf News

I was abroad last week and didn’t notice the date until last night, but Werewolf News had its first birthday on March 26th. That’s really trippy to me– it sure doesn’t feel like it’s been a year since a Photoshopped picture of David Duchovny and the first photos of Benicio del Toro as The Wolf Man motivated me to register this domain and fire up WordPress. It’s been a lot of work, but even more fun, especially since I get to see all kinds of weird and wacky werewolf stuff every week– stuff I probably wouldn’t have known about if I wasn’t actively searching it out to share with you.

Speaking of you, I owe you some thanks. This site gets way more daily readers than I ever would have expected, and the fact that I get yelled at when I slack off for too long is a sign that there really are people out there like me– people interested in the minutae of werewolf costumes and art, people eager to see our furry, fanged friends gain more and more quality exposure in the world. So thanks, everyone. You keep reading the news (and sending it in), and I’ll keep posting it!


Werewolf Events Calendar

I’m happy to announce a (hopefully) useful new feature on Werewolf News– the Werewolf Events Calendar. The idea is to list any and all upcoming werewolf-related events, from movies and concerts to game and comic releases. I will be adding things as I learn about them, so if you’ve got an event you’d like to see listed, please let me know!


Naptime Is Over

Hey. I inadvertently took s few weeks off… again. Good thing I’m not getting paid to run this site, huh? :D

No, seriously, time to get back to it. More updates, features and Weekly Werewolf Art coming up this weekend. Thanks for reading.


Just So We’re Clear

While on the prowl for werewolf news, I find that lately, every second article, post, photo or link has something to do with the Twilight phenomenon. With a film on the way and more to come, the deluge of tween-dreamy vampire pap is going to get a lot worse before it gets better, so I want to be upfront about a few things:

  1. There are no actual werewolves in the Twilight series.
  2. Werewolf-News.com will not be providing coverage of any Twilight-related news (see Point 1).
  3. Remus Lupin could kick Jacob Black’s ass with both hands tied behind his back.
  4. Vampires are not cool.

That is all.


Happy Halloween!

It’s the best day of the year– Halloween! From all of us here at Werewolf News (okay, it’s just me, but you get the point), have a happy, safe and werewolf-centric Halloween! And don’t forget… Day of the Dead is coming up too!

Sorry for the absence, everyone. I had some pretty excellent stuff happen over the weekend– my wife returned to Canada after an unplanned four-month absence caused by some problems with immigration paperwork. It was a long summer without her, and now that she’s back, you might see some interesting new art-related features appearing here before long.

Anyway, sorry again for the absence, and now it’s back to werewolf news!


Taking Friday Off

Hey, werewolf freaks. I’m taking Friday the 12th off to attend to some important personal business. Weekly Werewolf Art and any new lycanthropic tidbits that get sent my way will be posted on Saturday… and I’ve had some pretty sweet messages from an author and a comic book creator, so the wait should be worth it.

As always, if you’ve got some werewolf news, let me know, and if you like the site, please spread the word. Thanks!


Werewolves Prefer Google Chrome

According to my web anayltics software, in the 20 hours that Google Chrome has been available, 4% of the traffic visiting Werewolf News has been using the new web browser from Google. I mention this as news because many of the other first-day stats I’m seeing from other people indicate Chrome user levels at around 1%. That’s a gargantuan number of users for a browser that’s been out for less than a day… and to have four times that number visiting this site is really quite amazing. I guess werewolves (and those who like werewolves) really do prefer Google Chrome. Do you?


Coming Soon: Weekly Featured Werewolf Art

There’s a lot of really great werewolf art out there. Drawings, paintings, sketches, 3D renderings, costumes, masks, statues… werewolf-loving artists can be quite enthusiastic. Starting tomorrow, Werewolf News will be showcasing a new piece of werewolf art every Friday. If you’re an artist with something wolfy in your portfolio and you’d like to get a little more exposure, drop me a line!
